A career Marine's transition back to the other side

Happy Independence Day!

Wow- it is hard to believe that 2012 is half gone, but on the positive side it is almost Independence Day! Time for fireworks, barbequed steaks/burgers/hotdogs, and of course a beer or two.

As you enjoy the fireworks tomorrow make sure to keep in mind those men and women who are in uniform and away from their loved ones. As we all celebrate the 236th birthday of the United States it is important not to forget that the freedom that we enjoy is not free. It is bought and paid for by everyone who wears a uniform and also by their loved ones who are left behind as they serve from one corner of the globe to another.

May each and every one of you have a tremendous and happy July 4th, and we’ll be back to talking about transition by the end of the week!
